• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    BEWARE! New Email Scam

    You get an email from someone you know. They tell you they are traveling in a foreign country (mine said Japan) and will return in about one week. They ask if you can purchase an iTunes Card for them and they will pay you back when they return. Examine the return email address. It may look...

    Help explaining Airline Charges

    As the spouse of an airline employee I have "free" passage anywhere AA flies and almost "free" on other airlines but the last trip I took was in 2002. I feel about airline travel as you do and will do anything to avoid flying.

    Help explaining Airline Charges

    I reviewed this with the wifey and she said that American Airlines has just issued a new policy regarding these types of events and that regular agents now have increased latitude to refund tickets or make other adjustments. This may also be true at other airlines since they generally have a...

    Help explaining Airline Charges

    It never hurts to ask of course but wifey confirmed last night she does not know of any scheduled (domestic) airline that does things differently and she has been working the rez desk for over 15 years (with three different airlines).

    Virtually every airline has the same process. You will gain nothing by changing airlines.

    Help explaining Airline Charges

    My wife is a reservation agent for American Airlines and deals with this issue virtually each and every day. The short answer is that some airlines have a policy that if you cancel (the keyword is cancel) any leg of a multi leg flight their rez systems will automatically cancel the remaining...

    Soccer on ice

    During real hockey games some fire departments and police teams would play a version of this called "Broomball" the only major difference being that instead of hockey sticks the players carried actual brooms. It was usually a riot - and completely exhausting but always good for a laugh.

    Sales tax out of state

    AZ is not much different than most other states and motor vehicles are a different breed as well. If you had bought your Spyder from an individual (not having a resale license) you would not have paid any sales tax to AZ. Likewise, if you bought your Spyder from an out of state dealer and...

    Guns guns and more guns

    The foremost reason against beards aboard ship was because beards do not allow proper sealing of breathing apparatus. For that reason all members of damage control were not allowed to wear beards. Other sailors had a choice depending upon the CO.

    Guns guns and more guns

    When I was in it was the Commanding Officer's approval whether you could grow a beard or not. Interestingly, the same did not hold true for mustaches so there were some beauties aboard.

    Sales tax out of state

    It is impossible to keep a table of sales tax obligations by ZIP Code as cities (and other taxing jurisdictions) have different rates within a given ZIP. There are also other considerations such as products that are exempt, or at different rates, in the different jurisdictions. There are also...

    Guns guns and more guns

    Here is a great description of the various gunships in Viet Nam. I was witness to one pass of one of the early versions. In just one pass alongside a very dense jungle trail there was absolutely nothing left above several inches in height after Puff made her pass. Also witnessed one flare...

    No rain yet in Fashionable South Tempe and my money is still on the 4th of July. Always seems to blow in just about the time the fireworks begin.
